pcl_cruiser Posted January 10, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I was told that I can set up a character call and have Mickey or Donald call my DH to tell him about the cruise that is a surprise. Has anyone ever done this or know someone who has? If so, can you give me some details, please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommyjean Posted January 10, 2014 #2 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I did it on New Years Day. You set up the call on the Disney Cruise Line website. It's under the registration page. There's an icon for "Schedule a Character Call". You have three different character choices and you put in which ship and destination. We did the Mickey and Minnie call. My kids are 5 and were excited for about the first 10 seconds of the call, but the characters were hard to understand. All in all, I think it's a cute thing to do!

moki'smommy Posted January 11, 2014 #3 Share Posted January 11, 2014 As above, go to the registration page, enter date and time of desired call, character choice, cruise details, etc. and then wait for the phone to ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N&J Posted January 11, 2014 #4 Share Posted January 11, 2014 We had Mickey call on Christmas to surprise my 4 yr old. Like Tommyjean said was hard to understand and to me they speak way to fast for kids. But my little one got the surprise and that we are going on the Disney cruise :):) I am going to schedule the second call the day we leave 16 more days :D Nan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady_Jag Posted January 11, 2014 #5 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Mickey and Minnie called my daughter on Christmas day to tell her about the cruise. It was less than 60 seconds, but DD understood. A friend of mine set up a call for a specific time last year, but said she had to reschedule it 3-4 times because her two kids were never in the room at the same time.

tmtip Posted January 19, 2014 #7 Share Posted January 19, 2014 We just got ours about an hour ago for our upcoming Disney cruise this week. It was really cute, longer than I expected. Those Disney touches are what keep people coming back year after year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcl_cruiser Posted January 30, 2014 Author #8 Share Posted January 30, 2014 How long does the call last? I want to record it and his reaction then post it on FB, but not sure if it will be too long! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moki'smommy Posted January 30, 2014 #9 Share Posted January 30, 2014 It is about a minute...which seems like a long time when it is happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ames1974 Posted February 6, 2014 #10 Share Posted February 6, 2014 I just booked our first character call (this is our second cruise) and it's for the night before we fly to Orlando. DD knows about the cruise this time (total surprise the first time) so I wanted a different way to "surprise" her and a call from Mickey and Minnie will be perfect! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
